Interesting thought but is it a real possibility Freo dont win again this season or at best win 1 or 2 only and miss finals?
Checked out their draw, we know their away record stinks and they play Sydney,Saints,Roos and Dogs away so dont thini they will win any of them. Now usually you would back them to win most of their remaining home games but their home games are Eagles,Hawks,Carlton,Collingwood which is very hard and cant see them winning many of them. Im going to make the big call and say they will only win 1 game for rest of year and miss finals

Not such a big call really. The Saints and the Dogs are on the move and injury has cruelled the Dockers.

I went through the same process yesterday, and came to the same conclusion mate .. If the Aints and Pups keep winning regularly enough, coupled with Freo's tough run home they could be facing the old heave ho outta the 8 ..Whichever way it pans out it should be a fascinating finish to the season

I reckon Freo can take Carlton and Hawthorn at Patersons. Both are missing key personnel at the moment so that takes a bit of pressure of Freo's injury situation. Watch how they go against the Swans also. The Swannies haven't been beating the top four sides but generally go OK against the rest. If the Docks can pinch that one they will go a long way to qualifying for the eight. I still reckon the wheels can fall off at Essendon also, despite their last fortnight.

Yep I think those games you've mentioned are the most pivotal and will ultimately decide their fate.

Have done extremely well considering their lack of playing talent available for most of the season. The injury list is getting shorter going into the pointy end of the season. Sandilands should be back in a couple of weeks.
It's all the SANFL's fault.

Freo's club song is in the gf with Port Powers as the most unbelievably boring and pathetic

No way. Love the little guitar chord in the Freo song. Even though they've never won a flag at least Freo know it is a Premiership and not a Preemiership. That is seriously 5hite. Essendon's song sucks ar5e.
